I think they have got some wires crossed as there is a FREEPHONE number to report untaxed vehicles to the DVLA, that number is :- 0800 325202.

I have emailed the Council at;- environmental.protec@allerdale.gov.uk (the e-mail address on the site), and pointed this out to them, so hopefully tomorrow they will amend the site details.

Just received a reply from my email to them, (notice the American spelling of apologise). Although the spell check on this site asks if I want to change it to the American spelling??

Dear sir,

Thank you for your e mail about information on the abandoned vehicle part of the Allerdale BC website. You correctly point out that the DVLA 0870 telephone number is not a freephone number. I must apologize for this error. When the information was put on the website the Borough Council were under the impression that this was a freephone number.

Arrangements have been made to change the website details to correct this error. This should be completed within 48 hours.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention,

Peter Daley,

Environmental Health Unit Manager,

Allerdale Borough Council, Allerdale House, Workington, Cumbria, CA14 3 YJ

tel 01900 702786
